Hi,
i'm trying to figure out if a 1000W Advance ballast that i have rated for H37 bulb can run 3 175W bulbs. If i do split it, how would i go about doing that? would it burn out the bulbs?
i'm really not familiar with parallel circuts and what not...any help would be apprecitated.
thanks,
vinnie

I am not sure how to answer your Q either... call the manufacturer of the ballast (info should be included with the ballast) and they should be able to tell you if and how to make it work for your application.
